Batman v Superman: A Closer Look At The New Batmobile

There have been plenty of actors to play Batman on the big screen over the years, though the world’s greatest detective would be nothing without his infamous set of wheels with which to cruise around the streets of Gotham City. Ever since Tim Burton first unleashed his own cinematic vision of the Batmobile in 1989, several iterations of the classic vehicle have come and gone, from Val Kilmer’s skeletal hot rod in BatmanForever to the industrial, military-grade tank in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knighttrilogy.

In an exclusive video from Variant Comics, a certain Warner Bros. studio tour is given of all the Batmobiles of cinema history, with special attention paid to the latest creation straight from the set of Snyder’s forthcoming production. As seen in the video above, the automobile that Ben Affleck will take control of will feature plenty of perks, including shaved-down, tractor tires, a forward-facing Gatling gun, and a beat up exterior to match the on-screen character’s world-weary demeanor and grizzled exterior.

There’s plenty to love already about the overall look of the new Batmobile, and this latest in-depth examination of the car’s inner workings and overall design does not disappoint. Come March 2016, Christian Bale’s Tumbler might just prove to be a thing of the past when Affleck comes rolling onto screens around the world in this all new black beauty.
